This summer (July 6 – July 27, 2023), VinUniversity partners with the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC) to run 2023 UIUC-VinUni Summer School for Vietnamese High Schoolers from 9th to 12th graders. We invite motivated students to join our joint program called “What It Takes: Exploring Engineering Summer Camp“. This is a part of the Worldwide Youth in Science and Engineering (WYSE) program at The Grainger College of Engineering, UIUC that is designed for fostering excellence and diversity in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM). It introduces talented and diverse pre-college students to active college students, and together they explore engineering and the sciences through hands-on, minds-on activities. Campers will gain knowledge for selecting engineering majors and preparing for their college applications. This year, VinUniversity partners with UIUC to host this summer camp both virtual and locally at VinUni.
